Al Jazeera is reporting that: A resolution condemning Israel's military offensive in Gaza has been adopted by the UN Human Rights Council. The non-binding resolution said the assault, which has now entered its third week and killed more than 900 Palestinians, had "resulted in massive violations of human rights of the Palestinian people".Fewer states than expected supported Monday's resolution, which passed by 33 votes to one, with 13 abstentions.The UN rights body, meeting in Geneva, accused Israel of systematically destroying the Palestinian infrastructure and of targeting civilians as well as medical facilities. read full story / add a comment

January 10, was a day when radical and muslim europe came together in a big number of cities of the EU to demand the end of the massacre and denounce Bush and Barak as murderers. Today a huge demo is scheduled in Brussels. Many, even on the extreme left, are uncomfortable with the religious undertones of many demos and the fact they end up in collective prayers. Also, the equation of the nazi swastika with the star of david is regarded as historically absurd and antisemitic, just as are cries for the destruction of israel and the burning of Israeli flags. I will try to address these thorny issues in this piece. read full story / add a comment

Want to know why US/Israel is really invading Gaza? And why Lebanon will be next? And what do people in Bellanboy have in common with the invaded people of Gaza? An item of interest that is less discussed in the media amidst all their hysteria about Hamas, is the fact that there are considerable reserves of Gas off the Gazan coast line. And wherever there is gas or oil in this world, there is the US, their robber oil barons and their vicious war machine too. read full story / add a comment

Solidarity with the Palestinian people! No to war in Gaza and the Middle East! Hands off the People of Iran unreservedly condemns the barbaric onslaught by Israel on Palestinians and the siege of Gaza. We call on supporters of our campaign to join the demonstrations taking place all over the country. The scale of terror being inflicted shows that the Israeli state is hell-bent on ethnic cleansing the Palestinian people. George Bush obviously supports the Israeli atrocities. Obama is keeping his mouth shut. But it is clear what side he is on. He supported the invasion of Lebanon by Israel in 2006 and has recently endorsed Israel taking ‘firm’ action against Hamas. read full story / add a comment
